Various Rockin' 'N' Boppin' With DJ Rudy (2-LP)

(Stag O Lee) 32 tracks

Stag-O-Lee is proud to continue the DJ set series with a compilation from cult DJ Mr. Rudy. DJ Rudy blew us away with his selection of dancefloor smashes at the Goezot Festival in Belgium in September 2021. And when he sent us the list of festivals and weekender he has already played, we were even more impressed. So we invited him to put together Volume 7 of the DJ series on "Stag-O-Lee."

Liner Notes: When I first heard DJ Rudy play, I could immediately feel the movement on the dance floor and see the excitement among the dancers. As the night progressed, being a DJ myself, I kept a watchful eye on the clearly popular and friendly guy delivering the tunes - many of which (to my delight) I had never heard before, that filled the dance floor and sent the dancers into ecstasy. Finally, I thought, here's a DJ who knows what the dancers want, isn't afraid to play a really wide mix of rock genres (from rockabilly and R'n'B to early sixties garage bands from Belgium!). DJ Rudy is not someone who tries to impress with a small box of ultra rare 45s.... he wasn't in the DJ booth to please himself, he was there to please the crowd and give them what they wanted.

Since then, Rudy has played many sets for me at Rockabilly Rave and is a regular DJ on the international scene. And the best part about meeting him all those years ago is that he is one of the nicest, warmest and most passionate guys the scene has. Always willing to help, always with a big smile and a kind word, and always contributing something positive. This album is a great taste of what Rudy has brought to the scene. It proves that rockin' tunes can be different and varied, but if you pick the right ones, it's always a rockin' party! Jerry Chatabox October 2021
